Fujitsu Siemens Computers has introduced the world`s first convertible notebook with a modular bay that weighs less than 2kg. The ultra-portable LIFEBOOK T4010 allows meetings to be held virtually anywhere.
With a second battery, it can operate without recharging for up to 8.5 hours. Simply turn the display, and the notebook is transformed into a tablet PC. Taking notes by hand not only eliminates keyboard noise, but also means that the display no longer acts as a physical barrier to communication. The unique screen technology, meanwhile, gives it an extra-wide viewing angle, meaning several colleagues can follow the proceedings at once.
Equipped with Intel Centrino Mobile Technology and, depending on the model, either a 1.6 or 1.8GHz Intel Pentium M Processor, the LIFEBOOK T4010 delivers top performance, wireless mobility and long battery life.
Thanks to integrated Bluetooth, wireless LAN, FireWire, USB 2.0, IrDA, modem and SD/memory stick slot, the possibilities when connecting peripheral devices or exchanging data are practically boundless. Furthermore, a second hard drive or an optical drive (like a DVD burner) can be incorporated in place of the second battery.
The wealth of capabilities offered by the LIFEBOOK T4010 and its Microsoft Windows Tablet PC Edition 2005 operating system can truly save time. The customary labour-intensive handling of notes and minutes following meetings, for example, can be largely done away with: the handwriting recognition program simply converts these into normal word processor text. The LIFEBOOK T4010 can also be used as a projector and replace the traditional meeting flip chart, with the results immediately available to participants in electronic form. Sketches can be drawn directly on the screen, and notes conveniently written directly into presentations and e-mails, giving correspondence that personal touch.
